Application filed January 14, 1928. Serial No. 2 16,6705,

My invention relates to improvements in bottle openers of the kind usually attached;

to a wall so as to berigidly heldina per manent place, and to which the bottle and its closure are applied. My invention relates particularly to the combination with a'cap removing bottle opener, and one object of the invention is to combine with such bottleopener a cork remover, preferably a corkscrew, which willbe pivotally supported on will normally liev inconthe cap remover, spicuously against ered in a manner and also prevent it from catching on various articles. The invention is further intended to provide a corkscrew and cover which will the wall and'will be cov normally lie against a wall, but which can be swung out sothat the cover will not interfere with the corkscrew,and-the corkscrew can be conveniently operated. The invention is further intended to provide a convenient corkscrew and cover of this type irrespective of the particular fixtureto which is attached. Reference is tion, in which similar reference characters indicate corresponding parts inallthe views. Figure 1 is a front elevation' of the invention.

In the drawings Ihave shown a capre moving bottle opener. 1O which has a base 11 adapted to be secured to the wall or other support. It frequently happens that'bottles having caps andalso corks needopening, and my invention provides for convenient] 1 opening either kind. As illustrated "the'fizc ture 10 has onthe under side a boss .12 "which is slotted as shown at,13, and the shank of the corkscrew 15 .is formed into an eye 14 which entersthe slotandis pivoted o The corkscrew therefore, will normally'hang perpendicularly, but can on the pin 16.
